Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 293

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-293/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.

If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A gentle, dream-facing ambient journey through insectile moonlight, library warmth, and far-shore destinations.
Side A weaves moonflower percussion and analogue arrival into placid Italian night, New Mexico autumn weather, infinite healing time, and a lullaby held behind rain-glass. Side B opens with a whistle toward emotion, then settles into open dusk sky, eleven minutes of analogue hope, close string resonance, a voyage to Beta Virginis, and memory finding water again.
Overall mood: Soft, hopeful, and quietly celestial — full of dusk light, small window-reflections, and patient unfolding. Perfect for twilight listening, falling asleep, or sitting with what still waits on the far shore.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.

The tape unspools its visions.

00:01:17 Polypores – Moonflower
Polypores – Moonflower. Tenor recorder, guitars, piano, drums, kalimba and homemade percussion weave insectile textures. Loose slack layers build dense walls of melody dedicated to Violet.
00:05:36 The British Stereo Collective – Arrival
The British Stereo Collective – Arrival. Benny and Björn’s melody becomes analogue library light among other covered transmissions.
00:07:44 Piero Umiliani – Placida Notte
Piero Umiliani – Placida Notte. Fantasy, the lost Telesound chapter, returns on the composer’s centenary. Analogue synthesizers, light orchestration and smooth rhythms share one playful science-and-nature dream.
00:10:49 Heron & Crane – Over Autumn
Heron & Crane – Over Autumn. Clouds hover above New Mexico desert. Celtic harp, new-age synth, lap steel and Moog sequence travel from Charlottesville to Columbus in all-instrumental weather.
00:13:32 ALURIA – Infinite Time
ALURIA – Infinite Time. Healing soundscapes make their FORM@ debut on SLIT ART, opening an original worldview.
00:20:49 Lab’s Cloud – Lullaby for Dreamers
Lab’s Cloud – Lullaby for Dreamers. Rain, snow, wind and twilight move outside the glass. Interior warmth holds ethereal textures and small window-reflections.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:26:48 Henrik Meierkord & Suseti – The whistle
Henrik Meierkord & Suseti – The whistle. Strings and atmospheric new-age tones invite each listener toward their own emotion.
00:29:58 The Green Kingdom – Open Sky
The Green Kingdom – Open Sky. Softly processed piano, reverb-soaked guitar and sampled textures settle into airy dusk. Vespera names the hour.
00:33:35 Circuit3 – The Hope
Circuit3 – The Hope. Peter Fitzpatrick and Vince Clarke build an eleven-minute melodic drone landscape. Analogue machines carry notebook fragments into spacious instrumental light.
00:43:38 Aki Yli-Salomäki & Kreeta-Julia Heikkilä – Viriää
Aki Yli-Salomäki & Kreeta-Julia Heikkilä – Viriää. Violin and viola meet subtle synthesizer undercurrents. Slowly unfolding structures of timbre and resonance keep acoustic closeness.
00:46:06 Thaneco – Destination Beta Virginis
Thaneco – Destination Beta Virginis. Minimoog, Matriarch, Eurorack and mellotron voices soundtrack tau approaching zero. Bluish-green vegetation waits at the far shore of a new bang.
00:55:26 Teatre – Memory
Teatre – Memory. Amulet of Tears gathers the piece as a dry life finding water again.

The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, release date 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 291

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-291/

If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A warm, earthy ambient journey through shared currents, evening rituals, and what remains after the light fades.
Side A gathers jungle meetings and sacred tea, then moves through sunset marrow, mountain mist, solitary machine colour, and warm rainfall microliths. Side B opens liminal gazes and Holkham shorelines, then settles into piano placeholders, remaining polaroids, morning inlight, and a summer curve of insect hum.
Overall mood: Contemplative, healing, and quietly luminous — full of tape hiss, shoreline near-silence, and small rites of duration. Perfect for dusk listening, deep rest, or sitting with what stays.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.

The tape unspools its visions.

00:01:18 Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster – Unite
Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster – Unite. Jungle scan and echolocation gather as travellers of the past step into shared current. Illustration and tape hiss hold the meeting.
00:07:02 Time Rival – Sacred Tea
Time Rival – Sacred Tea. Tongue drums, kalimba, flute and sun-bleached saturation pour from a planner marked new music. The brew arrives cooked, oversaturated, warm.
00:14:09 Bålsam – Every Sunset
Bålsam – Every Sunset. Cicadas and river-rush enter the marrow. A mother’s voice message and a daughter’s unburdened tone sit among orchids and damp earth. Healing moves as pulse.
00:17:40 Maps and Diagrams – Mist on the Mountain
Maps and Diagrams – Mist on the Mountain. Loops and found sources cycle and fade. Subtle variation and decay keep happening in quiet instability.
00:21:40 Toàn – DEL 0
Toàn – DEL 0. A single Deluge machine, tape loops, harp and bowed tones layer into synesthetic colour. Solitude hangs as an invisible wall of texture.
00:26:01 zakè, Ossa, ASC – Microlith 8
zakè, Ossa, ASC – Microlith 8. Shimmering keys pour like warm rainfall. Analog lines, chest-deep bass and tape-saturated mist carry 90s ambient memory toward an ambiguous horizon.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:27:48 Philippe Blache – Let This Gaze Be Our Part
Philippe Blache – Let This Gaze Be Our Part. Liminal corridors and flowing memory open in meandering textures. Imaginary territories rise through melancholia and repetition.
00:33:47 (EXCLUSIVE) Richard Sage – Holkham
Richard Sage – Holkham. Tripod, Zoom and iPhone gather wave-analogues and shoreline seeds. Near silence wears its own palette.
00:41:25 Audio Obscura – Placeholder for Meaning
Audio Obscura – Placeholder for Meaning. Piano improvisation from Whitby finds its way after months of stillness. Pyramid shapes and late-year fruit settle into place.
00:48:55 Laurel Morgan & Yorkshire Modular Society – Remaining
Laurel Morgan & Yorkshire Modular Society – Remaining. Polaroids and modular breath keep what stays. Scrapbook pages hold the UK location in quiet duration.
00:53:21 David Cordero & Aiko Takahashi – Inlight
David Cordero & Aiko Takahashi – Inlight. Piano notes float as points of light. Modular tones gather in soft waves around the threshold of morning.
00:56:45 CIRC – Summer Curve
CIRC – Summer Curve. Insect hum and rustle become looped ethereal texture. Everyday night turns into a small sonic rite.

The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 282

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-282/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 282. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.

The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,111 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
A reflective, slightly melancholic ambient journey through vanishing places, last forests, and hovering resonances.
Side A opens in dense brainforests and soft sanctuaries, then blooms through disk errors, chosen confusion, Tokyo pavilions, and tired roads halfway from nowhere. Side B drifts into possible villages, orbital last forests, electric roads of trials, chalk coastal paths, invisible hovering worlds, and ends in the hazed industrial interzone of Motor City.
Overall mood: Contemplative, atmospheric, and quietly expansive — full of soft disappearances, preserved light, and gentle forward motion. Perfect for deep listening, late-night reflection, or drifting through imagined landscapes.
The tape unspools its visions.

Woodwind and spidery guitars open a dense forest of homemade percussion. Polypores – Seeing Absolutely Everything, Then Never Seeing It Again. Tenor recorder, piano, drums and kalimba rise into insectile textures and weaving repetitive melodies. The Brainforest expands in childlike layered motion, every surface alive with loose and slack exploration.

Sanctuary forms in swirling so-longs and dreamy murmured goodbyes. Halftribe – Sanctuary. Immersive tones drift through quiet open space, the field settling into soft reflective presence.

A disk error blooms into luminous data patterns. maps and diagrams – bloom.Solr- X a.41 [disk.err]. Signal fragments rearrange across open digital ground, each one expanding into new radiant forms.

Confusion gathers around a chosen image. Suncastle – Confusion. Sonic colours rise to meet the visual surface, opening into shared imaginative light.

A pavilion stands inside the sleeping Cityfield of Tokyo. Ryu Oshi – Denizen 3 — Pavilion. Offerings of orange light drift from a moving train window. Kami presence expands through electric piano and synthesizer duets, the urban subconscious glowing in mutual respect.

Tired tires roll across an unknown road of blurred memories. Far away Nebraska – And so it begins…. Ringing fills the open air while a storm moves through the mind. Halfway from nowhere the landscape stretches forward in steady motion.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

A village appears in quiet mirror light where realities fade into new truths. Nahal Kavand – The village where I might have lived one day. Field recordings from Tehran rise through heavy processing into thin layered soundscapes. Disappearances and vanishings open across the surface, time echoing deep within existence.

The last forests of Earth drift through silent orbital chambers. vOLKER rAPP – The last forests of Earth. ARP 2600 and SEM tones expand across vast greenhouse domes. The landscape holds the soft glow of preserved green light moving through space.

A road of trials opens in electric layered motion. Whettman Chelmets – Road of Trials (Electric Mix). Shoegaze ambient textures rise into wide reflective fields, the path expanding in luminous presence.

Beachy Head rises along the foot of the Downs under muted Ravilious colours. Gilroy Mere – Beachy Head. Train windows carry undulating textures, tempos and modulations. Clarinet, trumpet, flute and voice drift through chalk paths and coastal light, crystallizing into open sonic form.

Hovering resonance maps an invisible world drawn in wind and granular synthesis. Philippe Deschamps, The Goodnight Project – The Hovering Resonance. Organic drones and drifting textures expand across distant melodies, opening the boundaries of the ephemeral.

Motor City opens in dusty drum machinery and heavy echo. Sand Circles – Entering Motor City. Analog synths and derelict metropolis atmospheres rise through white sand, downtown haze and distant lights. The interzone expands in hazed industrial reverie.

The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

This has been The Virtual Cassette Library, episode 282.

I’ll meet you on the other side of the next spool.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 271

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-271/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve just pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 271. A twelve-track virtual cassette that flips itself at the halfway mark, whether you’re ready or not.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A reflective, slightly mysterious ambient journey through memory, floating worlds, and quiet observation.
Side A drifts from cello warmth and barking flowers into micro-drones, memory death, and floating liminality. Side B moves through ghosts, watchful figures, dusty relics, field-recorded nostalgia, watery reflections, and ends in Borges-inspired shadow.
Overall mood: Contemplative, nostalgic, and gently enigmatic — full of soft transitions and quiet emotional depth. Perfect for late-night listening, deep focus, or peaceful solitude.
I’ll introduce Side A now. Side B will wait for the intermission, as is tradition.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,095 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series Veil Frequencies, recorded floor-by-floor inside the 24 buildings of a place called the Resonant Veil Enclave. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
Side A
On this episode you’ll hear Stockholm cellist Henrik Meierkord teaming up with Indian artist Suseti for the title track “Hilate” from their latest name-your-price release.
Then Rotterdam’s Ard Janssen, better known as Ard Bit, guides us through surrender and introspection with “Barking Flowers” from the album Juxtaposed. That’s out on Dronarivm’s side hustle DƎЯRDE.
Next, the trio of Zach Frizzell, Kaiton Slusher and James Clements — zakè, Ossa and ASC — open their remarkable album Microliths and Momentary Drifts with the delicate “Microlith 1”.
After that, a piece from Boards of Canada’s Inferno: the quietly devastating “Memory Death”, out on Warp Records of course.
Then a collaboration between Tomotsugu Nakamura and David Cordero: the floating “Ukiyo” (floating world) from the album Aware 哀れ which in Japanese translates as pity or sorrow. Thats out on the wonderful Home Normal label.
Closing Side A is Venezuelan artist Angelo Sanellix together with Mexican producer Justin Ortiz (as SpoonBeats), offering liminal ambience in “long time ago” from the album Distant Particles, released on the prolific Stockholm label Valley View Records.
But first, the opening track of the cassette: Henrik Meierkord & Suseti with “Hilate”.
Now settle in. Turn it up just a little. Let’s see where the tape takes us.
One side flip. Just the music.
Side B
Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear one of the strongest supporters of this channel — Gareth Evans, known here as HDRF — with an exclusive track from the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures (out 26 September). His piece is the wonderfully titled “Mr Baines (Is Watching You)”.
Then Scottish modular artist and Dustopian Frequencies curator Everyday Dust offers “Maria” from his latest album The Relic Room.
Next, Chesapeake, Virginia’s Ryan Watts (Akira Film Script), a long-time friend of the library and contributor to The Mystery of the Night. Here he brings the heavily field-recorded “N6-79” from Over Exposure on Driftworks. Shout-out to Andrew Heath for keeping that label so consistently excellent.
Near the end we drift through elemental sensations with Intact Veils (Kraków) and “Image of Water” from the album Saint Imago, released on The Artificial Pine.
And finally, Paul Haslinger and Christian Wittman close the tape with “Elogio de La Sombra” (In Praise of Shadow) from their album Borges — an immersive soundscape into the world of Jorge Luis Borges — on their own label NOION Music.
But first, Raleigh, North Carolina’s Derrick Stembridge, better known as Drifting In Silence and here as Unknowndivide, opens Side B with the drifting drones and IDM glitches of “Ghost” from the album Existence on Labile Records.
Enjoy…

Side A
00:00:00 Henrik Meierkord & Suseti – Hilate
Warm, cello-led ambient with soft Indian-tinged textures and gentle emotional depth. Intimate and luminous.
00:07:15 Ard Bit – Barking Flowers
Surreal, introspective ambient with organic oddity and a sense of quiet surrender. Curious and atmospheric.
00:09:55 zakè, Ossa, ASC – Microlith 1
Delicate, micro-detailed drone ambient with crystalline fragments and patient, drifting beauty. Precise and immersive.
00:10:52 Boards of Canada – Memory Death
Classic BoC nostalgia laced with quiet finality and warped analogue haze. Haunting and bittersweet.
00:13:17 Tomotsugu Nakamura & David Cordero – Ukiyo
Floating, transient ambient (ukiyo = floating world) with soft Japanese-Spanish elegance and gentle suspension.
00:16:22 SanelliX & SpoonBeats – long time ago
Liminal, memory-soaked ambient with distant warmth and soft, half-remembered atmosphere. Melancholic and spacious.
Side B
00:20:05 Unknowndivide – Ghost
Drifting drones with subtle IDM glitches and spectral presence. Ethereal and quietly restless.
00:26:05 HDRF – Mr Baines (Is Watching You)
Warm, slightly watchful ambient with community spirit and gentle narrative intrigue. Comforting yet mysterious.
00:32:39 Everyday Dust – Maria
Modular, relic-like ambient with dusty textures and quiet emotional weight. Atmospheric and intimate.
00:37:08 Akira Film Script – N6-79
Field-recording rich ambient captured with cassette warmth and domestic nostalgia. Personal and comforting.
00:45:02 Intact Veils – Image of Water
Elemental, reflective ambient with fluid, mirrored textures and soft emotional clarity. Serene and contemplative.
00:48:29 Paul Haslinger, Christian Wittman – Elogio de La Sombra
Literary, shadow-praising ambient inspired by Borges — deep, enigmatic, and richly atmospheric. Profound closer.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, due 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that stir anything?
Send entries to trevlad@gmail.com

Deadline: 24 September.
All the best,
Trevor

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 266

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-266/

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 266. A 12 track virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A gentle, introspective ambient journey through awareness, weightlessness, storms, and quiet reflection.
Side A moves from attentive listening and zero-gravity daydreams into open arms and sweltering heat. Side B drifts through afflicted warmth, dawn-to-dusk passage, dramatic storms, blank slates, mirrored reflections, and motivated absence.
Overall mood: Contemplative, tender, and atmospheric — balancing soft intimacy with moments of intensity. Ideal for deep listening, meditation, or peaceful solitude.
I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 1 089 other shows whenever they like.
As a subscriber you also get access to my new series Veil Frequencies based on a fictional world I’ve created called The Resonant Veil Enclave.

I’ve gone back to doing more podcast like episodes but I’ll do all the talking now as I put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. There is just one break halfway through to give the “virtual cassette” meaning.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 255

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 255. A 12 track virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A gentle, nature-infused, and introspective ambient journey through seasons, plants, and storytelling.
Side A flows from sunny rain and clear ambiguity into fleeting glimpses, resigned beauty, and rhythmic patterns. Side B gathers around campfires, buoys, synesthetic storms, momentary drifts, and golden mystical pillars.
Overall mood: Warm, contemplative, and quietly wondrous with a strong connection to nature and emotion. Perfect for deep relaxation, morning listening, or peaceful reflection.
Episode 255 is based on the track “Buoy.” by “Willebrant” from the release “Selected Works – Slowed and Reverb, Volume 2”. Which Australian artist Karl Willebrant sent me a couple of days back. The track is over 13 minutes long so it should be on an episode of Expansive Waves which is my long form music show. For the moment that’s on hold as I don’t have the will to do one. Mainly from lack of time but also from having to pay for the shows myself as I’m still, after years of trying, missing 2 subscribers from the channel in order to get a payout from Mixcloud. It’s super frustrating dangling on that edge for so long.
Anyway a massive shout out to Richard Francés of Hylé Tapes for sending me their catalogue of wonderful releases. You’ll be hearing lots from Hylé Tapes in the near future.
In other news, Substak has entered a track for my next compilation release “Quiet Figures”. Get your entry in before September 24th and join him and The Earl of Dean. Details on the Bandcamp page.
Now back to this episode which features Dutch artist Art Bit and Columbian artist Bålsam both with releases on the Dronarium label.
Japanese artist Tomotsugu Nakamura together with Spanish artists David Cordero have one out via Home Normal records.
Another play by Washington DC based Dionisaf from his release on the Ambient Cat label.
Maps and Diagrams has a release on Sardinian label Lontano Series the sub label of Rohs! records.
Brussels based Jonathan Poliart gets another play from his release as well as Paris based Simon Cacheux both out on Adventurous Music.
The wonderful Mahorka label features, as usual, with a piece by Auto-nomaton.
Also the fantastic collaboration of zakè, Ossa, ASC with a release on zakés own Bandcamp page.
Ending the episode is Danish artist øjeRum with a release on Lithuanian label Amulet of Tears who has also supported the channel with loads of releases.
But first out to start the ball rolling Toronto based artist Chad Skinner also known as Sun Rain with his track May from the Imaginary North release Lake Effect: Quiet Music From Toronto.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 216

Crystal Dream Exposure

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. A 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
A serene, minimalist, and deeply atmospheric ambient journey focused on introspection, nature, and emotional subtlety.
Side A drifts from sparse elegance and remote wilderness sounds into ritualistic mystery, crystalline shimmer, dreamy states, and dramatic natural forces. Side B warms slightly with nostalgic memories, hopeful release, and gentle coastal waters.
Overall mood: Calm, contemplative, and quietly melancholic. It has a strong sense of stillness and inner space — like observing vast landscapes, fading memories, or personal reflection in solitude. Perfect for focused listening, meditation, reading, or late-night wind-down. Intimate and immersive with beautiful restraint.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 213 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 209

Minimal and focused, it unfolds with quiet intensity and subtle structural beauty.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 209 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
This episode is based on the track “Lectures on Radio Telegraphy” by Andrew Heath from the upcoming album “Airships & Aeronauts” which drops on the 5th of June via the Driftworks label. Also a massive thank you to See Blue Audio, FOLK POLICE RECORDINGS, whitelabrecs, Mystery Circles, Imaginary North and Mahorka for sponsoring the episode with material.
This is a gentle, introspective journey through soft melancholy and quiet wonder. It feels like a slow, overcast spring day — hazy light, light rain on umbrellas, fading golden-hour glow, and the comforting solitude of hidden places. There’s a pervasive sense of transition and impermanence (spring haze, last light, aftermath, phantom presence), balanced by moments of serene beauty and meditative calm. The atmosphere is warm yet wistful, organic and slightly ghostly, inviting deep reflection without ever becoming dark or heavy.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.

Intimate, reflective piece from The Lost Catalogue. Soft, rainy-day collages of field recordings and warm drones capture sheltered, contemplative moments under grey skies.
00:16:53 Julien Hauspie – Last Light
Gentle, fading ambient with cinematic warmth. Delicate layers evoke the final golden rays of daylight—poignant, peaceful, and beautifully transient.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 197

Waiting For You

Downtempo IDM

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the new Virtual Cassette Library – music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that sets the tone for the set. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark. If and when I get a couple more subscribers then I’ll go back to doing 90 minute versions, complete with commentary.
This episode titled Waiting For You is based on the track “I’m Waiting For You” by friend of the channel Damiano Verno, better known as Arcane Trickster . Available through the Greek label Cosmicleaf Records.
If you make music and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
And if you’re enjoying the channel, please consider subscribing — even if it’s just for a month, it makes a real difference.
So settle in, turn it up a bit if you can, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
No breaks, just the music.

Celestial deep techno/ambient with airy pads and subtle propulsion. Floating and heavenly.

Radiant, retro-futurist ambient with warm analogue glow and optimistic dawn energy. Hopeful and expansive.
00:24:55 The Heartwood Institute – The Tod
Haunting, folkloric dark ambient with rural British mystery and eerie stillness. Atmospheric and folk-horror tinged.
